Sand Filter System & Tank 21″ 1 1/2 Hp
I have an inground pool with a hayward super pump 1.5 hp and a hayward filter. when i opened the pool everything worked properly now i have a loss of pressure and little bubbles are coming out of the return into the pool. any ideas?
Experienced gardeners share their insights in answering this question :
If you notice bubbles in the water returning into the pool from the eyeball/discharge, or water in the strainer basket is visibly swirling (bubbles visible) odds are you need you replace the o-ring on the lid of the strainer basket in the front of the pump. This basket may also be clogged with debris, which also effect pressure. Could also be a cracked or warped strainer lid. Should be easy to see when you remove to check o-ring. Once you remove the strainer o-ring make sure you lube it with a good silcone based lube.

Clogged Pump and Skimmer Baskets – This is the most common cause of low pressure problems and thankfully the easiest to remedy. Simply clean out your pump or skimmer baskets to restore the flow of water and you should be good to go.
Air bubbles in your pool mean that air is being sucked into the line on the suction side of the pump. It`s likely happening because of one of these issues: The pool water level is too low. The strainer pot lid isn`t on tight or its O-ring is loose/absent/compromised.
It could be something blocking it, a dirty pool filter, or too much air in the system. If there`s something blocking your pump`s suction, check your filter gauge. If it`s 10psi above the normal reading, clean your filter. This will reduce pressure and reset your pump`s flow.
Air filters are hugely important to our home`s heating and cooling systems. That`s because not only do they protect your system from dirt buildup and damage, but they also help clean the air you breathe. However, one consequence of using air filters is that they create a pressure drop in your system.
Simply mount the booster pump between the water supply and the RO. A high pressure switch will mount on the pressurized storage tank tubing. This pressure switch cuts off power to the pump when the water storage tank reaches 40 PSI (or rated pre set pressure of the switch).
Pool Filter Pressure Too Low: Troubleshooting And Fixes
The most common cause is a blockage located somewhere before the filter. Check the skimmers, pump basket, pump impeller, and drain covers for any debris that could be blocking circulation.

At best, air in your plumbing system will create inefficient filtration and circulation. But at worst, it can overheat the motor or over-pressurize your filter, causing damage to your equipment. In a perfect world, the clear lid on your pump basket would show no air at all.

Clean your filter
A dirty filter will reduce water flow as the pump can only push water through so much dirt and debris. Try backwashing and rinsing your media filter to ease the path for the water. If this doesn`t work, turn the pump off and set your filter to recirculate.

1750 psi Electric Pressure Washer: My pressure washer is losing pressure and is pulsa…
ANSWER : If the pressure washer is pulsating then that is a sign of check valve failure. You may be able to clean of replace the check valves. Replacing the head is the wrong way to go. This is completely unnecessary. If you can tell me the model number of your pressure washer then I can assist you better in pointing you in the right direction.

I need to replace to fuel lines on a Craftman 32cc trimmer. The old ones cracked apart. 2 of the lines look like 1/8″ OD one line looks like 3/32″ OD. Larger line looks like it hooks to filter, Smaller line to a fitting in the gas tank. I am assuming the smaller line ges to the primer inlet. My question is the lines penetrate the bottom of the gas tank. How do they seal. How do I install the filter and the fitting. I am assuming to thread the new lines in from the bottom of the tank and pull through the gas cap hole. Then I attach filter or fitting and pull back through. So do I pull the line so as to create a seal from the swell caused by the fitting/filter?
ANSWER : Depending on the brand of line you use, Tygon line is self sealing but seems to shrink faster then factory supplied because of the ethanol in the gas. The stone gas filter is designed to fall to the lowest part of the tank, not stop the line from falling out.
